NYC Public Advocate Bill de Blasio was on Good Day New York this morning calling on the Mayor to cut the budget from other areas, and not teachers.

“I’m really worried. The last thing we should be cutting is teachers. We could cut technology consultants, $24 million was spent this year. We can also cut teacher recruiters which could save us hundreds of thousands of dollars,” de Blasio said.

De Blasio went on to admit that he believes Mayor Bloomberg’s plan to layoff thousands of teachers is just a ploy to help push through a bill on Last In, First Out.
